I always enjoy seeing what my creative haiku friends come up with next. And I am rarely disappointed. Today on her Yay Words blog, Aubrie Cox posted a collection of conversations and haiku she shared with Melissa Allen and Lucas Stensland, in the post open mail. I smiled all the way through it, and couldn’t resist posting this response in the comments. I’d call it a rengay, except that I’m not sure one person can write a rengay. So perhaps it a haiku sequence or… whatever. Anyway, here it is:
eavesdropping
on a conversation
winter rain
things don’t always
make cents
entering into
the spirit
ghost moon
70 is
the new 40
sleeping
not sleeping
saltine crackers
can’t find the like button
rain again
These are great, Cara!
I didn’t hear you
outside the door
winter rain
Thanks, Lucas. 🙂
